This beautiful .Japanese rose, while not new, is so 
rare as to be practically a novelty to the great flower- 
loving public. It is of peculiar beauty and interest, 
and an exquisite thing in every way. The plant is a 
strong, vigorous grower.

twenty to fifty flowers in each, covering the plant

is noticeable at a considerable distance. The indi- 
vidual flowers last a long time, the plants showing 
bloom for about a month, and are followed by bright 
red heps, or seed pods, exceedingly handsome, mak- 
ing the plant attractive after the flowers are gone

a charming addition to any collection.

ROSE CARMINE PILLAR. 
A splendid Rose, with single flowers 12 to 15 inches 
in circumference, of the brightest rosy carmine, and 
produced so abundantly that last year's shoots, some 
10 to 12 feet in length of growth, were covered from 
base to top with bunches of flowers from each eye or 
bud, theflowerson the bunches opening in succession. 
The display was thus kept up for nearly six weelis, during which it was seen by many leading amateurs and 
others, and pronounced novel and most decorative. Award of merit by Royal Horticultural Society and cer- 
tiflcate of merit by Royal Botanical Society. Those who have seen the rose at Kew when in bloom pronounce 
it a magnificent siglit. 50 cts. each, $5.00 per doz. 
The New Hybrid Multiflora Rose, DAWSON. 
This lovely climbing rose was raised in the Arnold Arboretum by Mr. .Tackson Dawson, by crossing the 
JIULTiFiiORA with Geneeal .Tacquejiinot. It is as vigorous a grower as the Rosa MuLxrPLORA, blooming 
in dense masses, or clusters, the same as that variety, but the flowers are nearly as double as those of 
Geneeal Jacqueminot. The color of these roses is a light rose-pink, .shading lighter as they grow older. 
The entire plant remains in bloom about a month, the difTorent buds on the clusters coming into bloom 
in succession. This rose will be a very desirable addition to our hardy roses. 
Strong field-grown plants, 35e. each, $3.50 per dozen. Extra strong plants, 50c. each, $5.00 per dozen.
